Time Changes

Why is it so hard for sportsbooks to find out when a game starts? Example: Today's game between the Jays & Tribe started at 1:25 EDT but every book had it going off at 1:05. Please sportsbooks, if you are going to handle my money lets get on th ball. Pay attention to your business at hand!!!

BigShooter,

In one of my rare instances of defending BMs, here it is. With a full schedule of college foots kicking off, the Cleve-Tor triple digit favorite bb game is on the lowest point of the totem pole in terms of priority. To put it in laymans terms, they don't give a shlt.

Bigshooter, The FOX-TV games on Sat. afternoon always have the wrong start time posted by the books. This has been going on all season. That game must have been on FOX.

BS...It makes absolutly no difference when post time is. e.g. put the fb line up Sunday
evening & most players will still wait till the ball is in the air next week to get down!Post time around the LV counters , on the net/phones offshore or at the track it's the same. In your case today the time was changed to accomodate fly swater day...Scotty

Ronbets, I did not know the world's attention was focused on the three colossal college kicks at 1:00 EDT. Blockbuster # 1 was Ohio Vs Western Michigan, # 2 was Central Florida Vs Eastern Michigan & who can forget the marquee match-up of David Letterman's winless Ball State club hosting that pesky Northern Illinois squad !!! Boy did I miss the boat today with these six stellar teams playin' some collegiate ball. ( Wow )

First of all BS, if you want to play baseball during and prior to a full slate of college foots you're in the extreme minority. To complain about a pushed back off time today will fall on angry ears. If you're any kind of player, a simple call to the joint should suffice. The man in the box would probably ok it for you. On the other hand, if you are a whining ball buster that's looking to disrupt my store during peak hours---well there's the door and your post up will follow-------SEE YA!!

Hey BigShooter, I will save you some time and some aggravation. Don't bother arguing with RonBets, not only does has he heard and seen it all before, but when he offers his thoughts, he is always right.

If you use the Don Best Service, you will see why most books have posted the incorrect time on the game. Whenever this happens, let the people at Don Best know and all the books will be informed. I beleive your contribution is a worthy one.
